食品伙伴網(wǎng)訊 2022年11月15日,歐盟食品安全局(EFSA)發(fā)布消息,應(yīng)歐盟委員會要求,歐盟食品安全局轉(zhuǎn)基因生物(GMO)專家組就轉(zhuǎn)基因玉米MON 95379用于食品和飼料中的安全性發(fā)表科學意見。
經(jīng)過評估,轉(zhuǎn)基因小組得出結(jié)論,就對人類和動物健康及環(huán)境的潛在影響而言,轉(zhuǎn)基因玉米MON 95379與其傳統(tǒng)對應(yīng)品種和經(jīng)過測試的非轉(zhuǎn)基因玉米品種一樣安全。部分原文報道如下:
Genetically modified maize MON 95379 was developed to confer insect protection against certain lepidopteran species. These properties were achieved by introducing the cry1B.868 and cry1Da_7 expression cassettes. The molecular characterisation data and bioinformatic analyses do not identify issues requiring food/feed safety assessment. None of the identified differences in the agronomic/phenotypic and compositional characteristics tested between maize MON 95379 and its conventional counterpart needs further assessment. The GMO Panel does not identify safety concerns regarding the toxicity and allergenicity of the Cry1B.868 and Cry1Da_7 proteins as expressed in maize MON 95379. The GMO Panel finds no evidence that the genetic modification impacts the overall safety of maize MON 95379. In the context of this application, the consumption of food and feed from maize MON 95379 does not represent a nutritional concern in humans and animals. Therefore, no post-market monitoring of food/feed is considered necessary. In the case of accidental release of viable maize MON 95379 grains into the environment, this would not raise environmental safety concerns. The post-market environmental monitoring plan and reporting intervals are in line with the intended uses of maize MON 95379. The GMO Panel concludes that maize MON 95379 is as safe as its conventional counterpart and the tested non-GM maize varieties with respect to potential effects on human and animal health and the environment.
